There is nothing more beautiful that a full moon night. The shadows and light merge with the imagination to make one magnificent night.

Enchanting language for a symbol we cherish. We worship the sun, but we can not even look at it. The moon, however, is the receiver of watchful ones, who could eye her by the hour, thinking, feeling, reflecting and projecting energy for energy, like you have here. She lets us have her, and you've let us have you. Thank you very much. ~~ Diana

This poem is almost an incantation! Ah the archetypal significance of the moon! And poetry of course is a gift of the Moon Goddess - or so say the ancient Celtic bards of their goddess Cerridwen, keeper of the Cauldron of Inspiration. The poem rescues the moon from the desacralisation it has undergone at the hands of the men of science. Yes of course the moon is about our inner world, about inspiration, creativity, about transformation (at the hands of Luna in alchemy), the feminine, and a whole lot more. Fellow readers - I dare you to read this poem at midnight on the night of a full moon!?

Your mesmerizing expressions create an awe-inspiring world of sensations overflowing with waves of emotions. Your truth reveals unimagined dimensions. You illuminate through an eternal all seeing all knowing eye. You send ripples through the cosmos clarifying, cleansing and healing all senses. Your piece is far beyond unique, far beyond space. You are truly extraordinary.

Like others, I've stared endlessly at the moon since I was a child. And it's still there, mystical and wonderful.

And we're not alone. A very popular Chinese song is this:
Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin (The Moon Represents My heart).

It's worth the effort.

Thank you, Diana, for a wonderful poem.

"Gowned in simple elegance" personifies the moon in such a lovely way, adding even more beauty to her feminine side. In addition, the cadence and alliteration of the last twelve syllables, "Magnanimous, Miraculous, Mystical Moon," closes the piece with three adjectives and a noun that makes me wish I had written the poem myself. "Mystical Moon" indeed does shine with brilliance. I love all your writing.

This is a fine ode to the goddess Moon, Diana. I have found the moon to be a source of inspiration on many an occasion. I have two poems at AD directly alluding the the moon. They are entitled, "Moon Smile" and "Moon Spell" but many of my other "poems" make reference to the moon. Thank you for sharing this offering. Love and best wishes,
